You seem to have trouble using language to communicate thought. Do you talk like this IRL?

That looks great, much better than the original cardboard components

That’s the official story at least, but we all know what’s really going on. There are 10 seasons of documentary detailing what’s really happening under that mountain.

Before the fiasco in Thailand I was a Musk fan, my opinion of him has falled greatly since then; even more so since Twitter. Now I groan whenever I see a headline with his name.

That is a great price for a random shop. It’s a great coin and it’s really cool you were able to stop in and find coins. The shops I vist here in the US, all the prices are 3 to 4 times what they should be, if they have any at all.

I find those green splotches a little worrysome, are they exposed bronze beneth the silvering or is it BD?

They’re not advertising or telling people to come to lemmy.world… people are coming here and they’re just accommodating them instead of blowing them off

Lol, I literally just saw a similar headline, read the result, and said the same thing just before seeing this post.

I think he should have used a fiberglass pen before applying the wax, then the final result would’ve looked much smoother.

Also the edges look concerning to me, might have some bronze disease. A long term soak in DW can clear up mild cases of BD

I know Joseph Mallozzi used to post cool things like this to reddit/r/Stargate

This is blowing my mind right now… Those things gave me nightmares as a kid thinking they crawl into people’s ears…

I always love these behind the scenes pictures :-)

Maybe since they had to interface with the Atlantis computer to disable the force field… They were more like a traditional garage door opener which just sends an RF signal.

Are you okay? Would you like a drink of water?

Is this a humble brag for how many books you’ve read?

I live in the states. As for how I acquire them, there are three major dealers in uncleaned coins: dirty old coins, nero coins, and noble roman coins. They have good reputations and you’ll get authentic coins from them, though their descriptions of the condition of the coins and ease of cleaning them are borderline fraud. That being said the more you pay per coin the better shape they’ll be, if your just starting out go with the cheapest… you’ll make mistakes and its best to make a mistake with a poor quality coin than a high quality coin. I’ve read that several shops on vcoins sell uncleaned lots but I haven’t had much success finding unclean coins on there. If you’re thinking about making a purchase make a post on here about it and we can discuss what you’re likely to get and talk strategies on cleaning them.

I don’t buy my coins from eBay. When i was doing my initial research i leaned buying from eBay requires expertise and experience to reduce the changes of falling for a scam. There are three major dealers in uncleaned coins. They’ve got decent reputations and you’re not going to get scammed. Though they’re descriptions of the state of the coins are hyperbole and should be taken with a grain of salt and they say the coins aren’t picked through but going off how true the descriptions are I don’t believe it. However, you do get authentic unclean coins from them… so to play it safe go with them. The 3 dealers are dirty old coins, nero coins, and noble roman coins. The more you pay per coin the better shape they’ll be, if your just starting out go with the cheapest… you’ll make mistakes and its best to make a mistake with a poor quality coin than a high quality coin. I’ve read that several shops on vcoins sell uncleaned lots but I haven’t had much success finding unclean coins on there.

Is there a plan to ever do that?

Same, every post

Including this one lol

Lol, this one went over my head. What’s the story here?

Wow this is really neat, I didn’t realize sun spots occur in bands like this. I always assumed they occur across the whole surface
